He has to do with the time period were studying because he lived in New york during the times of the great depression and in the particular department store that he worked in (Macys) there was a union starting but it was kept secret to the bosses if you were caught distributing leaflets about the union then you were instantly fired. At night they would leave inserts of leaflets in the sale ledgers and every clerk would find a pink sheet saying "Good Morning, how's everything...and how about coming to Union meeting tonight" this has to do with what were studying because in the great depression unions were first beginning and people would do anything they could do to keep their jobs. This man Chris Thorsten was an iron worker, his job was risky because people were always getting injured and 2 people were killed working on a new york hotel. One day on the job he was squeezed inbetween a crane and broke a collar bone all his ribs and 3 vertebrae, this has to do with our studies because it shows how people would work the most dangerous jobs just to feed their familys during the great depression.

He says peddling is all about your mood if people like your mood then they will buy your stuff, he also notes that king kong liqour helps that. This has to do with what were studying because during the great depression new york started having street vendors and that resulted in the present now having streets filled with them. This man Jim cole was a butcher for 20 years and he was good at what he did, he wanted to join a group called the AFL union, the Amalgamated Butchers and Meat Cutters, and he didnt make it.
